| GENERAL DESCRIPTION The Am29F016B is a 16 Mbit, 5.0 volt-only Flash memory organized as 2,097,152 bytes. The 8 bits of data appear on DQ0–DQ7. The Am29F016B is offered in 48-pin and 40-pin TSOP, and 44-pin SO packages. This device is designed to be programmed in-system with the standard system 5.0 volt VCC supply. A 12.0 volt VPP is not required for program or erase operations. The device can also be programmed in standard EPROM programmers. DISTINCTIVE CHARACTERISTICS ■ 5.0 V ± 10%, single power supply operation — Minimizes system level power requirements ■ Manufactured on 0.35 µm process technology — Compatible with 0.5 µm Am29F016 device ■ High performance — Access times as fast as 70 ns ■ Low power consumption — 25 mA typical active read current — 30 mA typical program/erase current — 1 µA typical standby current (standard access time to active mode) ■ Flexible sector architecture — 32 uniform sectors of 64 Kbytes each — Any combination of sectors can be erased — Supports full chip erase — Group sector protection: A hardware method of locking sector groups to prevent any program or erase operations within that sector group Temporary Sector Group Unprotect allows code changes in previously locked sectors ■ Embedded Algorithms — Embedded Erase algorithm automatically preprograms and erases the entire chip or any combination of designated sectors — Embedded Program algorithm automatically writes and verifies bytes at specified addresses ■ Mini-mum 1,000,000 program/erase cycles per sector guaranteed ■ Package options — 48-pin and 40-pin TSOP — 44-pin SO ■ Compatible with JEDEC standards — Pinout and software compatible with single-power-supply Flash standard — Superior inadvertent write protection ■ Data# Polling and toggle bits — Provides a software method of detecting program or erase cycle completion ■ Ready/Busy# output (RY/BY#) — Provides a hardware method for detecting program or erase cycle completion ■ Erase Suspend/Erase Resume — Suspends a sector erase operation to read data from, or program data to, a non-erasing sector, then resumes the erase operation ■ Hardware reset pin (RESET#) — Resets internal state machine to the read mode |
